Skeleton of tutorial 3
System
• controlDict
• fvSchemes
• fvSolutions
Boundary / Initial Conditions
• velocity & Pressure
In controlDict we specify the solver to be used, the time steps and the write controls. Then we browse through fvSolutions and fvSchemes in the system folder. We explain OpenFoam schema for Dimensional units of Physical parameters.

The crux of the tutorial is setting the Initial conditions for Pressure & Velocity for the incompressible solver icoFOAM.
Remember !!! Kinematic Pressure i.e P/Rho is used in icoFoam solver.

Thank you for some great visual intro to OpenFOAM. Will you be doing more series? I would really like to learn more from you guys.
ReplyDeleteThanks again!
Thank you for this tutorial, it was very helpful! Congratulations for the iniciative to do this. The way you approached the subject was very easy to understand. You should post more in this blog, and talk more about the OpenFOAM.
ReplyDeletehello. i am new in using OpenFOAM.,i installed and doing tutorials. previously when i did tutorial on first day paraview was working fine but now when i put command in terminal for paraview , it opens for 1 sec and closed automatically and there are so many errors in terminal for this. please tell me why is that?
ReplyDeletecan you plz share the link of that refrence book you were using
